Bacterial cellulose (BC) has a wide range of potential applications, namely as temporary substitute skin in the treatment of skin wounds, such as burns, ulcers and grafts. Surface properties determine the functional response of cells, an important factor for the successful development of biomaterials. This work evaluates the influence of bacterial cellulose surface treatment by plasma (BCP) on the cellular behavior and its genotoxicity potential. The modified surface was produced by plasma discharge in N2 and O2 atmosphere, and the roughness produced by ion bombardment characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Cell adhesion, viability and proliferation on BCP were analysed using crystal violet staining and the 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium (MTT) method. Genotoxicity was evaluated using the comet and cytokinesis block micronucleus assay. The results show that the plasma treatment changed surface roughness, producing an ideal cell attachment, evidenced by more elongated cell morphology and improved proliferation. The excellent biocompatibility of BCP was confirmed by genotoxicity tests, which showed no significant DNA damage. The BCP has therefore great potential as a new artificial implant

The present invention comprises composites with multifunctional characteristics, being capable of substituting glass, with significant advantages, with particular emphasis on flexibility, for a variety of applications such as, for example, display screens and others. Among other aspects, the product that constitutes the object of the invention is particularly characterized by rendering bacterial cellulose transparent, in addition to being flexible, biocompatible and able to replace glass in 100% of possible applications. Among other aspects, the development of the composites according to the present invention allows an effective increase in optical transmission, enabling an optical transmission of more than 90%, such transparency being necessary, equally, for the development of medical devices, for example.
